Thread: Help with animal and renting issues

    The only "pets" landlords object to where we live are cats and dogs. Many people have rats, gerbils, etc with no problems. I would look for a place you like and then mention your furballs to the landlord, even offering to bring them over for a show and tell session. Reassure him/her that they stay in a cage and are never left loose when you are out. Most landlords seem okay with this. Show your knowledge about these pets by explaining everything about their habits and care to the landlord so it will show you are responsible and serious about them. I'm not too sure about the resume as it might make you look a bit eccentric, which would be reason enough for a lanlord to refuse to rent to you. They have their hands full of eccentrics as it is and would avoid you in favour of a more mature person. One young person I know is renting without a problem and his pet is a tarantula, which would make me think twice since I freak at any kind of spider...lol...

    A snapping turtle that doesn't eat your tarantula? And a tarantula that doesn't go after the wee ratties? What a combination, he he he.
